- This monograph makes a substantial theoretical contribution to contemporary debates about the impact of digital technology on our experience of time. It draws upon six years of empirical research with knowledge workers on the use of mobile phones and the Internet in organizations and in the family. Research was based on a combination of semi-structured interviews, time-use diaries, and time-use survey data on IT use. The book project began during the author’s sabbatical at Nuffield College Oxford in Autumn 2011, throughout the following term at the Public Knowledge Institute, New York University and was completed at LSE by March 2014.
